lyrics

Lighter than the Leaves

So is this the end
Live as strangers, talk as friends
In the night the sun is down
We drive in circles through our town

Don't turn away
Don't turn to leave
This is the last you'll hear me speak
Please, remember me
We were lighter than the leaves

We were eighteen, we swam across
Your lake, and I got lost
When I was scared I called your name
My friend, you never came

Don't turn away
Don't turn to leave
This is the last you'll hear me speak
Please, remember me
We were lighter than the leaves

Don't turn away
Don't turn to leave
This is the last you'll hear me speak
